Photon-jet angular correlations in proton-nucleus collisions
Abstract
We calculate the double differential cross section for production of a photon and a quark jet in high energy proton-nucleus collisions in a new formalism that includes contributions of both small and large x gluons of the target. This allows us to investigate photon-jet angular correlations in both low and high transverse momentum region which would help clarify the role of saturation dynamics in the current experiments at RHIC and the LHC.
